Catarrh has become such a common
disease that a person entirely free from
this disgusting complaint is seldom met
with. It is customary to speak of Catarrh
as nothing more serious than a bad cold,
a simple inflammation of the nose and
throat. It is, in fact, a complicated and
very dangerous disease ; if not at first, it
Very soon becomes so.
The blood is quickly contaminated by
the foul secretions, and the poison through
the general circulation is carried to all
parts of the stem.
Salves, washes and sprays are unsatis
factory and disappointing, because they do
not reach the seat of the trouble. S. S. S.

and eliminates from the 6ystem all catar

CATARH
THE VERY riRSf TYPEWRITER.
Almost any big typewriter agency
has displayed, at one time or another,
some battered contrivance which Is de
clared to be "the first typewriter."
It Is beyond doubt, however, that
this decrepit machine. Invented by R.
T. P. Allen, of Kentucky, 40 years
ago, and now In the United States
patent office. Is the real original.
As long ago as 1714 the British pat
ent office granted to Heury Mills, a
Londoner, papers patent for "an arti
ficial writing machine." Mills' machine
however, was too bulky and altogether
Impracticable. Other typewriting
mechanisms followed, but until the Al
len invention was accomplished the
genuine typewriter did not come luto
existence. Allen's machine really em
bodied all the essential features of the
modern machine. Superintendent Gill,
of the patent office, vouches for the
priority of the invention here pictured.

If we could persuade every man In
any kind of business to advertise, says
the editor of the Jacksonville, Flu.,
Metropolis, we would do it with the full
assurance that we were doing the busi
ness public the greatest kind of favor.
The difference between a non-advertising
town and an advertising town la
the difference between one that Is alive
and stirring and one that Is dead. The
difference between the advertising
merchant and the non-advertlslug mer
chant Is the difference between a man
who pulls off his coat and rolls up his
sleeves nnd gets down to hard work
and pushes his business, and the man
who sits down and waits for business
to come to hliu. It is the difference be
tween perseverance and sloth; It Is the
difference between energy and laziness;
it Is the difference between the active
dollar and the idle dollar; It is the differ
ence between the man of to-day and
the fossil who has notions that are
forty or fifty years old.
You look at the newspnper In any
town and scan its advertisements; see
who It Is that advertises; what Is ad
vertised; how much, and you can very
readily understand what kind of a vil
lage you are going to. The business
man who understands business shys
the non-advertising town as he would
the bubonic plague. The non-ndvertlser
Is death to enterprise and death to pro
gress. If you nre In business and nre In earn
est about It you ought to just let the
public know something about yourself
by the use of printers' Ink. It not only
gives the public Information about your
business, but it helps you to do a great
work In your own behalf.
How to Get Rich.
Everybody wants to be rich. Here la
a plan which will make you wealthy If
you faithfully carry It out. Money
makes money. No one Is so poor that
he cannot rake up a penny to start on.
Now, upon the first day of the month
deposit a cent In a bank, and on each
of the succeeding thirty days of the
month double your deposit. Follow this
program faithfully, and at the end of
the month you will be surprised to find
that your account will show the sum
of ten million, seven hundred and thirty-seven
thousand, four hundred and
eighteen dollars and twenty-three cents
to your credit. With that' amount all
you have to do Is to retire" and let. the
other fellows hustle. If you don't be
lieve this statement, do a little sum In
arithmetic and be convluceed. In the
face of such a plain and simple finan
cial problem, who Is there that cannot
grow rich in a mouth and forever af
terward snap his fingers at poverty and
labor?
Where Laces Are Made.
Some of the finest laces In the world
come from Belgium. There are no less
than a thousand lace schools In that
country. Each of the towns has Its
own particular "points," the patterns of
which have been handed down from
mother to daughter for generations.
Lace making Is the chief industry of
the women of Flanders, and has been
for five centuries. The finest specimens
of Brussels lace come from the town of
that name Bruges has Its point
duchesse. or Belgian Uonlton, a bril
liant white pillow lace of flowers, uni
ted by barrettes. Prettiest of all the
Flemish laces Is that made at Mechlin,
Peint de Mechlin It Is called. It has
an exquisitely transparent ground and
fine design.
Is It ever allowable to say of a man
when be Is well dressed that he 'ooks
like a dream?
Are boys really worse than girls, or
la the statement that they we, simply
a white lie?

THE TWINE SITUATION.
Market Mas Been Advancing and Prices Arc
Firm
Some idea of the magnitude of the
sales of twine may be gained from the
fact that during the first nine months
of the current ttscal year, the value of
fiber imports into the United States
was nearly $23,000,000.00.
Every man in the Northwest who
has to do with the harvesting of crops
is interested in this matter. Many
have pursued the old time policy of
"waiting" for a break in the prices be
fore they buy their twine, but, for
many reasons, this year prospects are
that prices will remain practically un
changed, and certainly not lowered,
as as the fiber for this harvest's twine
has been already purchased. Some of
the largest Iioushb have sold all the
twine they will be able to produce for
the coming harvest, and are therefore
out of the market. In a few instances
it is known in the trade that travel
ing ealesmen and manufacturers have
cut wholesale prices in order to induce
dealers to enlarge their orders for im
plements, etc. But this has not been so
largely done as in former years, and
probably will not affect general prices
at all. Prices have rarely been so firm
a? at present ; that is to say, there has
seldom been so little shading of the
established prices. In past seasons at
this period, manufacturers and jobbers
complained frequently of cutting by
competitors. Just now no complaints
of this kind are heard.
To sum up the situation there is not
in the fiber prices any warrant for re
ducing the quotations on twine, and it
probably is the best advice that can be
given to dealers generally to suggest
that they do not hesitate in buying all
the twine they need at the present
market price.
We note that the sales of Standard
Twine are not nearly so heavy this year
as they formerly were. This is only a
repetition of all past experience, that
when an an article is gotten up to de
ceive or in imitation of a better one, it
is only a question of time when it is
found out and is forced down to its in
trinsic value.

IN A RACK OF FIRE.
Boy Imprisoned in Bis; Chandelier of
JJrury Lane Theater.
To cling to the network of rods on
a huge chandelier, roasting In the up
rushing heat of hundreds of gas burn
ers, with a drop of nluety fe-t be
neaththis Is an experience the mem
ory of which still makes Mr. Frank
Parker shudder. The circumstances
are told In the Strand Magazine.
Before the day of electric lights
Drury Lane Theater was illuminated
by a great gaselier, eighteen feet
across the base. It bung on stout
chains twelve feet long, and was fed
by pipes coming down through a man
hole in the celling. Close to this man
hole was a circular crown of burners; a
larger circle ran round the bottom of
the chandelier; and In addition, "bas
kets" of lights were grouped at Inter
vals about the lower rim.
The boy who lighted this glittering
mass of jets and flashing prisms was
Frank Parker, a youth of 17. As no
automatic spark had then been de
vised, the method of lighting was a
primitive one. Parker used to go Into
the garret above the celling and reach
down through the manhole with a long
pole, at the end of which was a spirit
torch. In doing this he had to be very
careful not to break any of the glass
pendants, which, If loosened, might un
der the great beat drop off during a
performance and kill some one In the
pit
One night, as Parker reached down
to light the lower range of lights and
the basket clusters, be knocked the
pole against a string of glass prisms,
which came loose at one end and
swung down, supported only by a small
copper wire.
Then be remembered the words of
the manager: "If any of the crystals
come loose, break them off at all costs.
They are dangerous."
So Parker, without hesitation, climb
ed down through the manhole upon the
luterlaced rods and brares of the chan
delier, which swayed slowly above the
black pit.
As he let himself down through the
hoop of lights which formed the top
of the chandelier, bis lamp caught the
circle of open jets, and the flame ran
round In a succession of sputters, oue
light catching from another, as a row
of dominoes falls. There be was. Im
prisoned between fire above and dark
ness below.
At first he did not notice his peril, for
he was Intent on breaking off the dan
gerous cluster of prisms. With great
difficulty he reached It and knocked It
Into the pit. The pause before it struck
told bim how deep the chasm lay be
neath him. Then he looked up and
realized his position, for there was the
circle of blazing jets above him barring
the way to the manhole.
The beat and poisonous fumes of
hundreds of lights rushed over him up
through the ventilator. He called for
help. The minutes slipped by. The
rods he clung to grew hot. Then, wbeu
he had almost given up hope, the head
llghtman beard bis cries and rushed
up, over the grille, through the dark
garret to the manhole. Turning off the
lights, he lay down, as one does to pull
a drowning man from a hole, reached
through the opening, and, seizing Par
ker's arms, drew him up to safety.
NATIONAL CUSTOMS.
Sir Charles Napier W as Perfectly
'Willing; to Observe Them. ,
When Sir Charles Napier was exer
cising military rule In India, he show
ed extraordinary skill as an adminis
trator. He availed himself as much as
possible of the framework of govern
ment previously existing, and used a
wonderful tact In answering the Hin
du mind according to Its own form of
thought
"Make no avoidable change in the
ancient laws add customs," he said to
bis ubord!nates. "The conquest of a
country is sufficient convulsion for the
people, without abrupt changes In
their habits and social life."
One custom, however, he did abolish,
and his method of doing It showed his
wisdom In administratorship. This was
the practice of sutteelsm the burning
of widows oj the funeral piles of their
husbands; and he not only put his foot
firmly down on It, but met counter ar
guments In the ouly manner possible.
The custom bad been formally abol
ished by Lord William Bentwlck, in
l&HO; but evidently it was still prac
ticed a dozen years later when Sir
Charles was in India.
When he proclaimed bis Intention of
suppressing sutteelsm, the priests
came to him to protest, on the ground
that all nations had customs to be re
spected, and that sutteelsm was one of
them. Napier affected to be Impressed
by the argument.
"Be It no," said he. "The burning of
widows Is your custom. Prepare the
pile. But my nation has also a cub
Uoni. When men burn women alive,
' we hang them and confiscate all their
property. My carpenters shall there
fore erect gibbets, on which every one
concerned in a widow's burning shall
be hanged. Let us all act according to
national custom."
